An Experiment: Turn a Plaza Story into a CYOA via Grok

[PapaPalpatine]

I've been playing  around with Grok recently and decided I'd try creating a "Choose Your Own Adventure"-style game from a Plaza story. For the test case, I chose Abbacor's "The Tomb Explorer." The results were better than I expected. For those who  would like to give it a try, the zipped folder linked to below contains a pdf copy of the story and a text file with the instructions and prompt. You can try it with other AIs, though I don't recommend Chatgpt as its general prudishness is likely to spoil the fun. Give it  a try, have fun, and if you have suggestions for improving the prompt, post them here and I'll be happy to try them out.

[Edit: I'm just going to provide a Google Drive link since there was an issue with attaching the zip file to the post.]

Very interesting approach! Using AI to transform an existing story into an interactive adventure is a clever way to explore storytelling possibilities.

Thanks. Have fun with it.
